Abstract
This invention improves on existing trampolines by utilizing a strap and pulley to relocate the resilient means from a horizontal position adjacent to the jumping surface to a vertical position below the upper trampoline frame.
Claims2
A trampoline bed attachment system comprising:
- A trampoline bed, a resilient means, a pulley, a pulley pin, a pulley housing, an upper trampoline frame, a secure attachment point, a tensioner, and a nylon strap
- The pulley housing fixed to the upper trampoline frame
- The pulley spinning freely within the pulley housing via the pulley pin
- The nylon strap wrapped halfway around the pulley in such a way to redirect the nylon strap 90 degrees
- The nylon strap connecting horizontally to the trampoline bed on one side of the pulley and vertically to the resilient means on the other side of the pulley
- The tensioner connecting the resilient means to a secure attachment point such as a lower trampoline frame member, an anchor in the floor, or an extended pulley housing
3 more elements
The pulley housing centering the pulley on top of the upper trampoline frame laterally
- The pulley housing capable of being mounted on either side of the upper trampoline frame to support trampoline beds on either side of it
